“The staff were the best support I could ever have asked for and for the rest of my life I will always, always remember them and the help and love they gave me.”
“Thank you for making woman like us feel worthy of a lot more than what we have come from and listening to what we want. I am no longer scared and am now ready to go and restart my life.”
"You have been the best people out of everyone to speak to about all my worries. A lot has been out of my control but you have helped me to make the best out of a horrible situation where no one else has listened to me."

Latest Fundraising campaign:

We are delighted to be planning the opening of a brand new accommodation that will support survivors of Domestic Abuse.

We are hoping to raise £25,000 to purchase new furniture for the property, to give those we support the best possible start in rebuilding their lives. Help us today, by making a donation and help us to make the accommodation safe and homely.
